If you're never going to span a partition across more than one drive
(which can be dangerous - if one of the drives fail, you lose what's on
both of them), and if you're never going to use the snapshot feature of
LVM to duplicate one of its volumes, then there's little point in using
LVM on your drive.  They would appear to be the two main reasons to
deliberately choose to use LVM.
